Crytek knows that people are cheating in Crysis 2 and they are not at all happy about it. The developer is working on a number of fronts to deal with the problem. The developer is working hard to get rid of exploits and to issue patches to close them out for good.

The developer is also warning that they are going to be swinging the “ban hammer” and they are going to land with both feet on those that are cheating, according to a recent blog post. The developer plans to penalize individuals that continue to choose to use exploits and they want to keep the integrity of the game intact and cheat free. The will be coming down hard and without any additional warnings.

Recently Crytek released a patch that killed the auto-aim feature and added a new anti-cheat system for PC players. The company is planning a series of updates for all platforms to address potential cheating and exploit issues. Crytek does not appear to be playing around, and they seem very serious about dealing with these issues. Cheaters beware!

Are you one of those accounts that have been identified by Blizzard as using unauthorized hacks or mods to cheat at StarCraft II? Well, Blizzard takes cheating seriously, and they have issued a warning to cheaters that they are going to deal with the behavior. ‘Dealing with it’ likely means (at the very least) account suspensions for those tagged for bending the rules.

Blizzard has reminded players of StarCraft II that, as with Warcraft, they are not kidding and will use the ban hammer to make their point; this means that banned players will not be able to log into their battle.net accounts and thus they will not be able to play the game.

Of course, using hacks or modifications of any type is a violation of the battle.net agreement and violates Blizzard policy. Playing StarCraft II means you need to be playing the game with a vanilla install of the gaming client; doing otherwise will bring the wrath of Blizzard upon you.

Sources suggest that Blizzard will be moving quickly in the next couple of days to deal with cheaters. If you don’t want to get banned, you had best turn over a new leaf and stop cheating; or face the ban hammer. It is your choice.
